The Salvation Army Thrift Store & Donation Center

Filthy store, so many clothes have very obvious stains or holes, and outrageously overpriced! Most dresses are $20, some are more. I pulled out a dress marked $20 and it had an enormous blue ink stain (the size of a peach!). I walked past a nightgown that had so many holes it was literally unwearable. I could save money buying things new!

Maybe it's 'cause I'm from Michigan and our Salvation Army's are just way better, but this is probably the nastiest looking and smelliest Salvation Army I've ever seen. All the shoes are only up to size 7's. The place is so unorganized, the staff is rude. I gathered around 15 pieces of clothing to try on, and when I went to go change I realized it wasn't even a door. It was a curtain with holes in it and a STRING to keep it shut. There's no lighting in the dressing rooms, it's completely dark and the mirror has graffiti all over it. I went to another one thinking it'd be better because it had a door at least, but there was no hook. Only a string kept it shut. So disgusting and smelly, super dark I couldn't even see what I looked like trying things on. Then I hear my mother come up to the door and ask if I'm in there, and suddenly an employee comes over and starts telling her the changing rooms are closed and we can't use them. My mother is saying "Well there's no sign? How would we know?" And she angrily says "There was a sign! It was a printed one. I don't know where it went." She then explained the changing rooms close at 6 but the store closes at 7. Why? That's so weird lol. I've never heard of that. Plus it was 5:55 when I actually got into the changing room and she was mad I was in there at 6. When I got out, the lady had taken ALL the clothes I had hung up to try on and she put them away. (the changing room had a limit of 5 items, so i hung them up outside the changing room) I specifically called to her and told her those were mine but she ignored me. I left with nothing, they won't be getting my recommendations or visits. The place is awful and needs to be shut down.

Extremely overpriced, the most expensive thrift store in Findlay. Stained old Columbia jacket for $20, kids wheelchair for over $100 ( that was donated for people who need it!!), broken old skechers for $20, used bras for $7( pack of three new ones is $12 in Gabes). Manager runs it more personal than professional. No public restrooms, smells like smoke, trashed outside. The only pleasant workers are two ladies: one who runs the register first shift and lady who puts clothes on racks on second shift. They are friendly and make you feel comfortable at this place.

is there any way in the future of converting to a plastic barb system INSTEAD OF the staple tags after you wear a shirt for a few months, you end up a few 2-3mm holes where the staples are..other salvation army stores have told me the staple system should have been phased out years ago due to damage to clothing

Great selection of clothes! Well organized! Don't let the old building chase you away. Poor management and rude employees. Tried to close early on a weekday. Customers trying to come in 10 minutes till 6 were told I'll let you in but you have to hurry! Then yelled at the 2 groups "hurry up" , right after they denied another customer. Staff used to be friendly at this location.

It's nice there is a salvation army here. It's not well organized. Did get a good filing cabinet here. Clothes selection isn't great. Not their fault Findlay is a small area

Went in for something specific. Dressing rooms were filthy with dust and dirt. Supervisor rudely ordered busy worker on other side of the store to come wait on customer, while she herself sat right next to the cash register and customer. Said nothing to customer. Continued to belittle worker in front of everyone as she sat looking at her phone.

This is one of the better Salvation Army stores I've visited. The clothes were organized by size(for the most part) and the store is reasonably organized. Prices were a little high IMO on a few items. The store could use a deep cleaning however.

I hadn't been in the store since 12/2015 and decided to stop in yesterday evening. Right upon walking in we noticed the store smelled pretty bad like urine (way worse then the normal used clothing store). It was also very dirty, with stuff all over the floors. My 8 year old needed to use the restroom and the store manager told us they have no public restroom, but he could go out side if he wanted to. After that it was not hard to understand the condition of the store when you have that mentality in a manager running it. We will not be going back there again.

Honest review here... This place is really dirty and sometimes smells just awful... But they have a lot of really good quality items and when they are on sale it's a steal. The staff is also incredibly kind to me and my young kiddos and I appreciate that so much!

Its not the nicest of places...dressing rooms smell of urine, they don't have public restrooms and this place is supposed to be for poor people right..? Second hand items priced like there new! Considering everything there is donated, AND employees often have first pick of nicer/new items before there put out for sale, you could atleast give the rest of us a break, price wise!.. and they don't have any guitars..I looked..

They usually have decent clothes and furniture. The furniture is usually fairly priced. The women's clothes section is much larger than the mens. Only bad thing to say is that the store is very dirty. Old building, poorly taken care of. I would still definitely recommend this place to a friend looking for cheap clothes.

They have most of their clothing according to sizes which makes it a lot easier to look through and they have a lot to choose from. Prices are very reasonable and the clerk was very nice.

This place is a second hand store. There are some good things and some junk just like any other store of this type. Tons of clothes and some furniture but little in the furniture dept when I was there. I'm sure the stock changes frequently. Great place to find a bargain on clothes.

If I could rate 0 stars I would. The customer service that I just witnessed at the store on main street was beyond atrocious. I will never attempt to donate there again, neither will my spouse, we will take our gently used goods across town to Goodwill Easter seals. Unbelievable.

The Salvation Army Thrift store, Main St, Findlay is a great place to find bargains while supporting the good work of the Salvation Army. In addition to Worship, they have many programs that benefit the community.

Love the store, but the donation process is getting ridiculous. I don’t have time for your workers to pick and choose what they want to accept. I am not hauling it all to the store just to take it home and throw it away.

A little unkept. Good prices but there is usually a bit of an aroma in that store. Not enough to keep me out though.

Great place to go to find your next treasure. The store itself is old and worn, but they have many nice things for sale.
